The design of composites offers extensive opportunities for controlling parameters and utilizing diverse materials, including those sourced from recycling or waste streams. In this study, biocomposites were developed using high-density polyethylene (HDPE) pomace derived oilseed plants such as evening primrose, gold pleasure, rapeseed, sunflower seeds, mixed in a 1:1 ratio. These evaluated their structural, mechanical, morphological, thermal properties, well vulnerability to overgrowth by cellulolytic fungi. results indicate that incorporating plant into HDPE reduces stability while increasing water absorption thickness swelling. Additionally, the showed enhanced fungal growth, which may improve biodegradability. Notably, PE_EP composite, primrose pomace, did not show significant differences surface roughness MOE compared pure polyethylene. case PE_R an increase was observed maintaining MOR parameter PE. Although generally mechanical properties lower polyethylene, findings suggest with further optimization, oil can be valuable raw material producing suitable various industrial applications, thereby contributing sustainability effective recycling.
